Merry 'not-busy' Christmas!!


When I was a child, still in elementary school or kind of, all I thinking of is new dress, new shoes, and having some Christmas performance rehearsal. Celebrate Christmas from one church to the others, from one celebration to the others. All about getting busy, showing my existence, and looking good on the others' eyes

And then I leave the hometown. So next Christmas is about back home, meet parent and family. Celebrate Christmas only in Christmas Eve and big family christmas celebration. But still, we are too busy. Busy meeting other people called family. Busy to attend all things conducted in the name of Christmas. Busy to do all thing while back home

And then that time comes. Time to make some bucks. To pay bills, buying things. I choose when I want to back home. I came home one week before Christmas Eve, or maybe one week after. Sometimes I skip the Christmas Eve or even the Christmas sermon.  I'm not busy.. not busy at all. 

I'm not busy, really not.. Not busy so hear the quite rhythm. Not busy to share story with the speaking silence. They are good friends.. "Don't be too busy," they said. "Just don't..."
